The USA Political Thread

Fact check: 5 falsehoods Trump repeated at CPAC, from election fraud to Texas' wind power

FACT: windmills are used for grinding grain

 

MSN? May as well ask Pinocchio to do your fact checking. But I did enjoy the photo gallery of members of congress running, ducking, hiding and otherwise slithering away in terror from angry citizens. We need more of that. A government should fear the people, not the other way round.

 

...bias toward MSN much?

I could have cited: https://www.fognation.com/2021/03/0...cpac-from-election-fraud-to-texas-wind-power/

Alternatively: William Cummings, USA TODAY; David Jackson, USA TODAY; Todd Spangler, Detroit Free Press; The Associated Press etc., etc.

 

This guy is too hilarious, lol, "I never understood wind, I know windmills very much..." what a BS'er

 

He was right about one thing, "The world is tiny compared to the universe" ...but he wants the cleanest water and the cleanest air on the planet?

Trump: Making America polluted again

His first EPA Administrator sought to reverse EPA’s long-standing positions in legal proceedings, as well as its regulations and policies addressing industrial emissions of toxic chemicals, green house gases and other substances that hurt the environment and human health, including new standards to protect children from lead in paint.

Trump’s second and current EPA Administrator, a former coal industry lobbyist, has reduced the role of science in EPA rule making, gutted EPA’s coal ash rule, proposed unsafe levels for a chemical water contaminant, rolled back protections for vulnerable wetlands, and weakened mercury emission standards.

Mental yes... but no environmentalist

 

I noticed on several pics people with these plastic bags... WTH are they used for?

No idea. But take a look at that picture - those are the people making the decisions for America's future!

 

Don't worry - we have everything under control!

 

Portable hazmat headgear, notice the air valves? Maybe this is more your style...

 

Unbelievable. They went from wearing a mask to wearing a bag.

 

Trumpers also find masks (even the pandemic itself) unbelievable. Had these so called "bags" been standard issue at the time (for the ones who would've used them), possibly many thousand American lives might have been saved. But...

 

Obviously you don't like MSN, how about other news sources? Out of curiousity, here's a couple examples (courtesy Pravda):

US citizens ask other countries for help

A US diplomat working in the Middle East lamented that it was awkward for the wealthiest country in the world to ask for charity from other countries.

Employees of the US Embassy in Moscow asked the authorities to be vaccinated with Sputnik V vaccine due to the shortage of supplies of US-made vaccines from the United States. The diplomats, who wished to remain anonymous, said that their request was due to the fact that the American state did not even promise them vaccinations in the near future.

USA starts to bootlick Sudan

This is some extraordinary news just because the US excluded Sudan from the list of terrorist sponsors in December 2020.

It just so happens that the Americans were not interested in this African country for more than 20 years, had no military contacts with Khartoum, let alone cooperation. At the same time, the Americans imposed a bunch of sanctions on Sudan that literally obstructed the country from developing.

I can't even imagine what CCP news has to offer, but of course, this is one popular stance in US:

CCP started and won this war

It should be obvious at this point that we just experienced World War III. The CCP simply has the population to tolerate the virus’ mortality rates. It is a proverbial drop in the population bucket...

 

Meanwhile, in Canada, CTV news reports:

Donald and Melania Trump received COVID-19 vaccine at the White House in January

"How unpainful that vaccine shot is, so everybody go get your shot." That encouragement marked a notable shift as Trump, during his time in office, had long dismissed the gravity of the virus and eschewed practices like social distancing and mask wearing.

 

That's a lot of news. But this one makes little sense, sounds like a retread of what some Chinese military goons have said about nuclear war.

The mortality rates of Covid-19 are insignificant from a national security perspective. There will be no shortage of labor or young workers. To the contrary, since it takes out mostly older citizens who tend to be no longer productive and who place more burdens on the medical system and social welfare system, it's absurd to talk about it the way that article does. From a purely Machiavellian point of view, the Covid deaths could be seen as a positive thing.

The Democrats/Republicans, Chinese CCP, or the Japanese government are all the same in that none of them care even a bit about the people they rule over. We are all just pawns to them. The difference is that the Americans seem most unaware of that fact of all 3 countries. Perhaps because they are deceived by the illusion of having a 2 party system.

 

It doesn't matter what colours or stripes they wear, military goons are basically all the same.

There's definitely no shortage of gullible people. I suppose in a Machiavellian sort of way we ought to thank 45.

What do you mean? They're politicians, they're from the government...they're here to help

 

What is funny is you really believe wearing a mask or wearing a bag save lives.

 

Wray refutes claims that Antifa and leftists added to Capitol riot

"We have not, to date, seen any evidence of anarchist violence extremists or people subscribing to Antifa in connection to the 6th," Wray told the Senate on Tuesday.
